A few days ago a friend tipped me off that kennethwoods.net had become the no. 1 ranked “conductor website” result on google, and we’re still there about a week on. Try it, but please click through to us and not New Jersy Semi Conductor who are charging up the charts at no 5. Chill the champagne Martha. That means I’m 2 slots above Marin Alsop and 4 above Paavo Jarvi, a page ahead of Andrew Litton and 14 slots ahead of Neeme Jarvi. Leonard Slatkin is on page 3, as is Placido Domingo. Not that I take any notice of these things. In any case, one learns to celebrate small victories in life.
